OMB recommends approval and provides additional back­ ground information in its enrolled bill report (Tab A). Phil Areeda and Max Friedersdorf both recommend approval. RECOMMENDATION That you sign H.R. 14401 (Tab B). EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET WASHINGTON, D.C. 20503 DEC 2 3 1974 MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT Subject: Enrolled Bill H.R. 14401 - Military band recordings Sponsor - Rep. Hebert (D) Louisiana Lapt Day for Action December 31, 1974 - Tuesday Purpose Authorizes military band recordings in support of the American Revolution Bicentennial. Agency Recommendations Office of Management and Budget Approval Department of Defense Approval American Revolution Bicentennial Administration Approval Discussion Existing law prohibits enlisted members of the Armed Forces from being ordered or allowed to leave their posts to engage in civilian pursuits, whether for remuneration or otherwise, if such activities interfere with the normal employment of civilians in their usual line of work. The Department of Defense has held that this restriction prohibits the military bands from making recordings for commercial sale. The enrolled bill would provide a special one-time exception to the current statutory restriction. It authorizes the United States Army Band, the United States Navy Band, the United States Air Force Band, and the United States Marine 2 Band to participate in the production of a collection of recordings for commercial sale in conjunction with the American Revolution Bicentennial. Noting the objections of certain professional musicians' organizations that enactment of this legislation would interfere with the civilian employment of professional musicians in the Washington, D. C. area, the House Armed Services Committee, in its report on H.R. 14401, stated: " ••• this Committee has been informed that if the military bands do not make the recordings the Bicentennial Commission will not expend funds hiring commercial musicians to make the recordings. In other words, if the military bands do not make the recordings there will not be recordings produced under the auspices of the Bicentennial Commission." It is understood that these recordings, featuring heritage­ related military music, will be offered for sale commercially only during the 2-year bicentennial period from 1975-1976. Production and distribution of the recordings should not result in any cost to the Government since the bill permits Defense to be reimbursed for its expenses from the proceeds of the sale of the recordings. It is further understood that proceeds in excess of costs will go into the Miscellaneous Receipts of the Treasury Department's General Fund. ) 1r~'¥J~ Assistant Director for Legislative Reference Enclosures THE WHITE' HGUSE ACTION MEMORANDUM WASHINGTON.

For the President DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY OF~CEOFTHESECRETARY WASHINGTON, D. C. 203!50 December 23, 1974 Dear Mr. Ash: Your transmittal sheet ·dated December 19, 1974, enclosing a facsimile of an enrolled bill of Congress, H.R. 14401, 11To authorize military band re­ cordings in support of the American Revolution Bicentennial, 11 and requesting the comments of the Department of Defense, has been received. The Department of the Navy has been assigned the responsibility for the preparation of a report expressing the views of the Department of Defense. The purpose of H.R. 14401 is to authorize the United States Army Band, United States Navy Band, United States Air Force Band, and United States Marine Band to participate in the production of a collection of recordings -- including both a record album and a tape cassette or cartridge -- for commercial sale, in conjunction with the American Revolution Bicentennial. Appropriations of the Department of Defense applied to the expenses of production and sale of the collection would be reimbursed from the proceeds of sales. Any pro­ ceeds in excess of expenses would be credited to the Miscellaneous Receipts of the Treasury Department's General Fund. Complaints are frequently heard from citizens that they do not have the opportunity to listen to the premier military bands. Even with their exten­ sive tour schedules, it is impossible for the bands to perform in every town in the nation. It is envisioned .that during the American Revolution Bicenten­ nial celebration there will be considerable pageantry recalling the military traditions of the United States and an even greater interest in military music. The production of a collection of recordings by the armed forces bands featuring heritage-related military music would be a suitable way of commemor­ ating the Bicentennial and .at the same time broaden the opportunity for all Americans to hear the premier military bands. Approval of H.R. 14401 would make the quality music of the military bands available to those persons who have never had the opportunity to witness a performance by these outstanding organizations. This additional exposure would, in turn, enable the bands to fulfill their missions more effectively and would enhance the image and prestige of the armed forces. The approval of this legislation would result in no increase in the budgetary requirements of the Department of Defense. The Department of the Navy, on behalf of the Department of Defense, recommends the approval of H.R. 14401. Sincerely yours, Honorable Roy L. Ash /j_f(J;tbS" Director, Office of Management D. s. Potter and Budget Under Secretary of the Navy Washington, D. c. 20503 AMERICAN REVOLUTION BICENTENNIAL ADMINISTRATION 731 JACKSON PLACE. N.W.

C. 20503 · Dear Mr. Rommel: This is in response to your transmittal of December 19, 1974 requesting the views of the-American Revolution Bicentennial Administ-ration (ARBA) on enrolled bill H.R. 14401 "To authorize military band recordings in support of the American Revolution Bicentennial." The ARBA supports the legislation and recommends that the President approve the enrolled bill.

Black US Army bands and their bandmasters in World War I Peter M. Lefferts This essay sketches the story of the bands and bandmasters of the twenty seven new black army regiments which served in the U.S. Army in World War I. They underwent rapid mobilization and demobilization over 1917-1919, and were for the most part unconnected by personnel or traditions to the long-established bands of the four black regular U.S. Army regiments that preceded them and continued to serve after them. Pressed to find sufficient numbers of willing and able black band leaders, the army turned to schools and the entertainment industry for the necessary talent.

This will allow us to provide more in-depth stories and a new feature on the work done by our bands out in the fleet. Whether through music, imagery, video or articles, we’re always looking for new ways to reach more people, and to connect Americans with their Navy. We had a busy summer! June 5 was the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Midway, one of the greatest naval battles the world has ever witnessed and a critical turning point in the Pacific during World War II. Navy bands supported commemoration events around the world. We even sent musicians to Midway Atoll, where a bugler and vocalist from the U.S. Pacific Fleet Band participated in a globally-broadcast ceremony. Inspired by the “Greatest Generation,” our Sailors and civilians carry on that legacy of adaptation and resilience. Believe it or not, we’re already nearing the end of 2017.

    PORT AUTHORITY: THE SOUL OF THE NAVY BAND COUNTRY CURRENT TURNS 45 SPOTLIGHT ON MASTER CHIEF MUSICIAN KEVIN DINES t’s been an incredibly productive and rewarding couple of months for the Navy Band and Navy Music to kick off 2018. The Concert Band toured 12 states, performing in 21 cities and covering nearly 5,000 miles. IThe Sea Chanters wowed audiences in three states on their national tour. Already we’ve had Navy bands connecting with people all over the world, including a historic visit by the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson with the U.S. 7th Fleet Band to Da Nang, Vietnam. It’s awe inspiring to witness the great work our musicians do each and every day telling our Navy’s story. Our Music in the Schools program is headed in an exciting new direction. In this issue, Chief Musician Randy Johnson talks about our first adventure taking our educational outreach programs into schools around the world, thanks to a partnership with Defense Media Activity. Reaching out to young people and showing them the benefits of hard work and dedication is always a highlight for us. In May, we’ll be celebrating the 45th anniversary of Country Current with a special concert featuring former members of the group at Schlesinger Hall in Alexandria, Virginia. Country Current, always a crowd favorite, mixes flawless country and bluegrass playing with a down-to-earth performance style that never ceases to impress. We’re all looking forward to this opportunity to celebrate the decades of service this group has given our Navy.
